Got Marketing Questions: We’ll Give You Answers! Let me know what marketing messaging challenges you’re struggling with and I’ll address those issues in the Keeping it Human blog, in podcasts, and across my content: kathy@keepingithuman.com     Fun Stuff This Month:  Virgin America Safety Video One of my favorite things from November is this great safety video from Virgin Airlines.  You would expect nothing less from the master of fun, Richard Branson.  People have heard the airline safety spiel so much, they tune out.  How do you get people to tune in?  With fun and humor.  In an increasingly noisy world, that can be the difference that gets your messages heard.   Where in the World is Kathy Speaking Next?   Need a fun speaker, facilitator, or workshop on marketing that can make the topic engaging, humorous and bring out the best in your people?  Email Kathy@keepingithuman.com. Feature: B2B Marketing Humor - Put the FUN in Funnel to Widen it Fun and humor are great at driving awareness and conversation. That is what you need for the top of your funnel (yes, *that* f-word!).

Until then, I’m on a mission of mercy. B2B doesn’t mean blah to boring!   Read more….
